September 2023

AID

If you are interested in joining Ibex, we hope to see you during the Annual Introduction Days this summer!

Subscription and selection

Applications for September 2023 are closed. On this page you can find information about the important dates, introduction course, mentor groups and requirements for membership.

Important dates

The table below shows the important dates of the upcoming introduction period (as far as we know so far).

• Selection deadline: We will let you know whether you have been selected or not before this deadline. If you haven’t heard from us by that time, please let us know (email: wsacibex@gmail.com), because something may have gone wrong with your subscription.
• Subscription evening: You need to finalize your subscription at this evening by showing us that you meet the requirements (see below). If you can't be there, you need to make sure that you have completed the required steps before this evening so we can register everyone as new members at once.

Introduction course

If you become a member during the september period, without an IT-certificate, you will follow the IT-course. This course allows you to learn the skills required to safely climb indoor toprope. The course takes 4 weeks, with an exam and a chance for a resit.

Mentor groups

When you become a member you can be put into a mentor group if you want. This is to help you meet other new members while under the guidance of your mentors. Of course there are plenty of other opportunities to meet other members, both new and old, at the activities being organized

Requirements

At the subscription evening, the board gives a talk with information about the association and provides help with meeting the requirements for membership. It is important to be present during these dates. If you really can not be present, you can send an email to the board.

What you need to do to become a member, is explained on the membership page. An overview of the requirements is included below:

IT certificate  -  Make sure you have an IT certificate before the subscription evening. You can let your IT certificate be approved at the subscription evening, or earlier by emailing a picture of your IT certificate to the board.

Annual student sports rights  -  Purchase annual student sports rights before the subscription evening. You can let your sports rights be approved at the subscription evening, or earlier by emailing your name and WBA number to the board (wsacibex@gmail.com). You can purchase annual student sports rights online or at the service desk in Sports Centre the Bongerd. If that doesn't work because you are a PhD student, you can send an email to the secretarial employee of the Bongerd (wendy.vandervliet@wur.nl). If you cannot manage to purchase annual student sports rights before the subscription deadline, let us know why that is at the subscription evening, or earlier by email.

Website account  -  Register on the website before the subscription evening. You can fill out your website account and let it be approved at the subscription evening, or earlier by filling out your account at home and asking for approval by email.

Membership form (direct debit form)  -  You can fill out, sign and hand in your membership form at the subscription evening, or earlier by emailing a picture of your completed and signed membership form to the board. You can download and print the membership form from the membership page, fill it out at home and take it to the subscription evening, but you can also get a form from us there.
